I am self pay....so the price difference is almost double in the states...also my BMI is low so it's harder to find a doctor in the states to do it...and I figured if I'm going to travel what's the difference? I've struggled with my weight and I just want to get it done before I get any heavier. From my understanding the doctors do live in San Diego and just travel across the border every day...but like I said haven't had the surgery yet so I'll know soon!

I was cancelled due to the fires...really, really disappointed...I was sooo ready but that was out of everyone's control, rescheduled two weeks later. I'm glad to hear yours went well. Looking for to Nov. 7 if anyone else is going that week let me know, I'm coming from St. Louis.
